The 1vm command line
A complete CLI covering create, start, snapshot, inspect and reset — a peer of the GUI rather than a paid tier or an afterthought.
Why it matters
Anything worth doing twice is worth scripting. Several competitors either gate their CLI behind a higher tier or treat it as a secondary surface that lags the GUI.
What changes
Without it
- The CLI is a paid upgrade, or covers a subset of what the app can do.
- Automation drifts out of sync with the interface.
With 1VMTool
- 1vm covers the same operations as the app, at every tier.
What it covers
- create, start, stop, snapshot, restore, inspect, set and reset
- Open a machine's console from the terminal
- Inspect generated credentials and provisioning phase
- Included with the app rather than a separate tier
What you get out of it
- Script a test environment end to end
- Automate reset-between-runs in CI or a local loop
